Chimú artisans were skilled in feather art, wood carving, mat making and working with shells and semiprecious stones. From close relations with their Lambayeque neighbors, whom they would eventually incorporate into their empire, the goldsmiths perfected the techniques to produce copper, silver and gold prestige goods, such as cups, ear flares or masks, used especially in ceremonial ceremonies by the nobles. The textiles of this culture were a prestigious and influential craft that spread throughout the northern and central coast of Peru, even rivaling the tradition of fine tapestries that characterized the textiles of the Wari and Tiwanaku empires. They made a wide range of textiles, with special emphasis on the manufacture of costumes composed of different garments that share a common style, most of them for ceremonial use or consecrated to funerary offerings. The Chimú pottery, although it picked up many of the elements of the immediately preceding creations, especially the preference for bottles with modeled figures of the most varied species, stood out for returning to one of the most ancient Andean traditions. Similar to the Chavín culture, the Chimú potters preferred their pieces to have only a shiny black appearance on their surface.

Article conforme à la description superbe objet bon communication avec le vendeur la seule chose qui peut être regrettable pour cette sorte d'article c'est qu'il n'y a pas de certificat d'authenticité

Agréablement surpris par la qualité de l'objet. mais j'ai des doutes sur l'authenticité; le collier est monté sur câble d'acier. pas de fermoir... Etonnant pour un objet dit "ancien"...

It's formed with ancient beads, same that all necklaces in other dealers and museums, mounted on modern thread, as is logical

Lovely necklace. Exactly as described and pictured. Well wrapped and packed.I would heartily recommend this seller, and would definitely buy from them again.
